I have always thought of myself as brave. Whenever there's a lizard or cockroach in the house and my kids are on the sofa with their feet up, they can always rely on mom to get rid of the pest. I have gone through labour twice without any painkillers, I have changed the smelliest diapers that would make anyone throw up their lunch or dinner, and guess who hubby calls out to when he discovers a half-eaten rat on the porch courtesy of the neighbourhood cat? But I must admit, the only thing that scares me is being on a roller-coaster ride...that is until my kids start to drive!Went to Nando's with my lunch buddy MK and her little daughter last Thursday. I seldom go to Nando's because my kids don't enjoy the food there...they find it rather spicy, even the mildest flavour. For a meal of chicken they would rather go to Kenny Rodger's.I decided to not to try anything too spicy and guess what I was labelled for not being very adventurous with my choice of chicken...ouch!

The meal was good and I enjoyed my grilled vegetables and salad. I wanted some warm water but they only served room temperature mineral water...minus points for that!

Perhaps I would be 'a little braver' the next time I eat at Nando's...or maybe I would just set my mouth on fire with the extra hot Peri-Peri...just maybe... (trying to soothe my bruised ego)

A stay-at-home mom with a fairly odd sense of humour. Life in the 'mommy lane' with Mr. CoolGuy (formerly known as Cool Teen) and Miss Sweet Teen (formerly known as Miss PreTeen) is always wildly unpredictable so I figured why not just try to see the lighter side of things and enjoy the ride!
